We Must Go Where The People Are

(Part six in the Recovering Missional Moxie series from Alan Hirsch. Read part seven here.) We know from research that within three to five years of a person becoming a Christian, he or she will have no meaningful relationships with anyone outside the…

The Biggest No Brainer

Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas

Cultural celebrations are not man-made institutions. Like much of God’s creation, holidays can be—and have been—distorted for all sorts of less-than-holy purposes. But what if “Santa” really isn’t an anagram for “Satan”? What if we can we redeem this…

The Gap is Real (and Giveaway!)

Guest post by Rankin Wilbourne. Until you grasp and live out of your union with Christ, the Bible’s call to holiness will be oppressive, unbearable, and impossible. Imagine a “great Christian” day. You start the day early in prayer. You…

It’s Not Us Vs. Them

Regenerate. Unregenerate. He uses us all. It is so easy to forget that God often uses non-Christians to move His kingdom project forward. It is a sad misunderstanding to assume God won’t, or can’t, use people who haven’t surrendered their life to…
